Hi,
I’ve been playing around for a few days with Hassio (installed from image) and have added my smart home devices. I thought that I’d start off small (I have no coding experience, in fact, my son calls me a “cut and paster” rather than a coder!) and try some simple projects. My first (pause torrent downloads when my son is using his PS4) went relatively smoothly once I had found out how to use Red Node, however the second is proving to be a struggle.
I’d like to use a Dash button to trigger a message from my Google Home announcing that someone is at the door. I have the announcement in Red Node which is working well but I can’t trigger it. This is the Dasshio config;
And this is the toggle switch that I plan to use as a trigger in Red Node;
However, every time the button is pushed, I get;
I have tried to find a solution but this isn’t helped by most of examples I come across seem to be in JSON format whilst the Dasshio config is asking for YMAL format. Iḿ sure the conversion is straight forward but I’m not sure which of the brackets, commas and single/double speech marks Ineed to keep. I’m sure the solution is straight forward but I can’t for the life of me figure out what it is.
Thanks in advance for any help that you can offer,
Steve
